Rent & eviction protection

Is 1275-1277 Dolores St rent-controlled?

San Francisco's Rent Ordinance caps rent increases and provides eviction protection for most residential units built before 1979 with 2+ units. Here's how this building scores.

Built before 1979
Built 1904
2 or more units
3 units
Property type
Multi-Family Residential

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

Statewide backstop · AB 1482

California Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Even when a building isn't covered by local rent stabilization, the statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) may still apply. It caps annual rent increases and requires the landlord to state a legal reason to end most tenancies.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1904
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Local rent control likely takes priority. This building appears to fall under the local ordinance above, which is stronger than AB 1482. Where a local just-cause ordinance applies, its rules govern instead of the state cap.

AB 1482 does not apply to single-family homes and condos unless owned by a corporation, REIT, or an LLC with a corporate member; to owner-occupied duplexes; or to deed-restricted affordable housing. The Act is in effect until January 1, 2030. Not legal advice — see the California landlord–tenant guide.

Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 1275-1277 Dolores Street in Noe Valley, owned by the Herrera Family Revocable Trust, has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects since its construction in 1904. Most recently, in July 2023, the property received substantial kitchen and bathroom renovations, including cabinet replacements, countertop upgrades, sink and faucet replacements, and the installation of GFCI electrical outlets, with an associated plumbing update for the bathroom shower and sink fixtures. This $25,000 project follows earlier maintenance work in 2015 when rotted stair treads were replaced, and historical records show consistent attention to stairway maintenance, with similar repairs documented in 1993, 1995, and other structural improvements including a complete reroofing in 2005 and an electrical system upgrade with underground conversion in 2004.

The building's safety history shows a compliance issue in 2001 regarding fire safety equipment, including smoke detectors and fire extinguishers, which was promptly addressed and abated by July 2002. There have been two routine housing inspections (2001 and 2009) conducted by Housing Inspection Services, both of which were resolved. While there are several 311 calls recorded for the street address, these primarily relate to external matters such as street cleaning, sidewalk parking issues, and tree maintenance, rather than building-specific concerns. The only recorded fire-related incident was a smoke or odor removal situation with no civilian injuries reported. The property has maintained active compliance with necessary building permits and inspections, demonstrating regular maintenance and prompt attention to any identified issues.

Risk rating

How 1275-1277 Dolores St's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of SF DBI inspection data — notice of violation filings, complaint history, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that DBI inspectors will issue a Notice of Violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
45thpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 1033 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
